Hi Everyone,
I'm so happy to be adding some of my newest designs to the Etsy store. They are part of a new series I'm calling LW2 (LiveWires2). Sounds like something out of a spy novel, eh?
Many of my designs are created using the Lost Wax technique but recently I've been playing with just beads & wire and that's a whole n’ther ball game. It is both fun and intimidating, sometimes at the same time! During this process I created ‘The BoLt’ which takes the place of those pesky rubber sleeves which always seem to disappear on their way to the floor. To make sure they worked, I had friends wear them for weeks before committing to incorporating them into the designs.
In this Series LW2, I became interested in searching for the imbued meaning of the stones and in some cases, their properties. It was fascinating how these mini-stories unfolded and how they complimented the designs. I hope you enjoy them!

After your order is shipped you will receive a 10% off coupon on your next order totaling over $75. (It's called a Thankyou10). Orders over $125 will ship for Free. Good news… the postal rates have gone up again this year but I won’t be raising my USPS First Class or Priority fees.
If you want to contact me directly, you can leave a message on Etsy or Email judiegummdesigns [!at] gmail.com. "Like" me on Facebook, Judie Gumm Designs and you'll get more updates on specials. I look forward to hearing from you.
Best, Judie

5 out of 5 starsBeautiful brooch. Simply stunning. Arrived quickly (considering it had to cross the Atlantic!), and beautifully packaged, with a little extra treat inside! Thank you so much. I love them both.

5 out of 5 starsI purchased both the Birch Bark hoops and the Salmon Migration Hoops from Judie (who used to live up here in Fairbanks, Alaska with many, many admirers/purchasers of her work!). Her pieces are always exquisite and precise and these 2 pairs are beautiful. So happy I purchased them. They arrived very quickly and well-packaged.

5 out of 5 starsNice Druzy earrings - they look exactly as pictured. Something a little different from this artist, and beautiful. I highly recommend this shop. I have often bought from her, and it's always been a pleasure. Very happy!!
